THE HUNGER



Miriam Blaylock, is a beautiful yet dangerous immortal creature that preys on the lifeforce of humans, inviting a chosen few to be her human lovers, promising them eternal life... with a price. As the film begins, her current companion is John, a talented cellist she married in 18th century France. In the present day, they live together in an elegant New York townhouse posing as a Gothic punk couple.

Before long, John begins to experience the price of his eternal life... human companions of Miriam are doomed to suffer a living death. Where Miriam herself is truly ageless, her human lovers, however, only experienced prolonged youth for a century or two before they begin to age rapidly, eventually deteriorating into withered, corpse-like figures. The true horror of this situation is that these vampire/human hybrids age but cannot die. John begins to age rapidly and seeks out the help of Dr. Sarah Roberts, who specializes in the study of aging disorders, hoping she will be able to help restore his health...
